volcopy(1M)                                                     volcopy(1M)


   NAME
         volcopy (generic) - make literal copy of file system

   SYNOPSIS
         volcopy [-F FSType] [-V] [current_options] [-o specific_options]
         operands

   DESCRIPTION
         volcopy makes a literal copy of the file system.

         current_options are options supported by the s5-specific module of
         volcopy.  Other FSTypes do not necessarily support these options.
         specific_options indicate suboptions specified in a comma-separated
         list of suboptions and/or keyword-attribute pairs for interpretation
         by the FSType-specific module of the command.

         operands generally include the device and volume names and are file
         system specific. A detailed description of the operands can be found
         on the FSType-specific man pages of volcopy.

         The options are:

         -F    Specify the FSType on which to operate.  The FSType should
               either be specified here or be determinable from /etc/vfstab by
               matching the operands with an entry in the table.

         -V    Echo the complete command line, but do not execute the command.
               The command line is generated by using the options and
               arguments provided by the user and adding to them information
               derived from /etc/vfstab.  This option should be used to verify
               and validate the command line.

         -o    Specify FSType-specific options.

   NOTE
         This command may not be supported for all FSTypes.
